    How bad is all that extra weight up front with a new bumper and winch?

    Yeah, I had checked that out before and was hoping that the zero offset would work, but it rubs. Definitely need to upgrade to their front leveling kit. Thanks!

    How bad is all that extra weight up front with a new bumper and winch?

    Thanks for the info! I'm debating going with a true 4-inch lift, but it is insanely expensive! Looking like $1600 for the kit, and another $700 for install and alignment. Crazy.

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Took the truck to a local tire shop to have the new wheels and tires balanced. Discount Tire is incapable of balancing wheels and tires. I was about a half hour from the Discount Tire and on a good road when I finally realized that they weren't balanced. I took the truck to a local shop and...

    How bad is all that extra weight up front with a new bumper and winch?

    I added a cheap Chinese steel bumper up front and a 16.5k winch. The bumper was about 100lbs and the winch another 70. I didn't notice any issues at all with the minor weight increase. But, I want to upgrade the bumper to something higher quality such as a Steelcraft bumper, and the one I...

    Going to 37s with the wrong offset; what's going to rub?

    All trimmed and still a little too close, but should be fine.

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    My dad runs them on his Jeep in Arizona and loves them. Previous tire I ran was the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT and it was amazing. But, it was also $466 vs. $322 for the Patagonia XT in 37s.

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Installed 37x12.50R17 Milestar Patagonia XTs on 8" rims with 0 offset today. 2.5" leveling kit up front. Minor rubbing on plastic wheelwell liner. I'll do some trimming tomorrow to take care of that. And fix my bumper. Hit some dirt off-roading last month and tweaked it up. The previous...

    What did you do TO your RAM today?

    Those should do pretty well. It's surprising how many 4x4 owners have no idea just how much the tire tread and compound affects vehicle performance in snow and off-road. I saw another post today on a Facebook page from some guy asking how his model of truck does in the snow since he's nervous...

    Going to 37s with the wrong offset; what's going to rub?

    Tires went on and slight rubbing on the plastic wheelwell liner. Too cold and dark to trim by the time I got home. I'll take care of that tomorrow.

    Going to 37s with the wrong offset; what's going to rub?

    Currently have a 2024 diesel with a 2.5" leveling kit and Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT pizza cutters in LT255/85R17 on 8" rims with a 0 offset. Great tires, but am taking the truck on a road trip and will be doing a fair amount of trail running in the desert and wanted a wider and taller tire...

    Cheapest option to soften the ride?

    It's got the Tuff Country spacers up front and no other suspension mods. It's a diesel. I'll look into those Thuren products; thanks!

    Cheapest option to soften the ride?

    I herniated a disk at work back in August. I've been going to therapy and finally was declared as good as it gets with my condition. Basically, I'm 57 years old and have been abusing my body for 50 years. I've had a lot of fun, but now I have a bunch of arthritis in my back, some still mildly...

    Your gun is poop

    My AR10 is a PSA10 and is lucky to get close to 1" groups. I'm also in WA state and am 2 miles from the Idaho border. Trying to get back to Idaho where I was born and grew up, but housing prices are insane. My house in Idaho, a mere few miles away, is worth twice what it is in commie...

    Your gun is poop

    I had no idea that there was such a thing as an optics cut shotgun; cool!

    First road trip with a diesel; best fuel sources?

    Where I live it gets to the negative temps, and for most of the trip down it can get into the single-digits until you drop down out of the mountains of Nevada. I do the first night in Twin Falls, ID, then the second night is usually Southern Utah, so am good there. I need fuel additive...
